Aussie Rules

One blustery afternoon Room 13 went outside to play Aussie  Rules with 2 expert coaches,their names were Alysa and Megan.


Our first skill we learnt was to do a quick warm up called the Bumper Jumper.First you hop on one leg then you get your partner so close and try to bump them, to make her stand on two feet. I lost against Ana!


“Now come to the floor” shouted Megan  and Alysa. Our next skill was bouncing the ball. In Aussie Rules in order to run, you have to bounce the ball - so we had to practice. It’s harder than it looks. Our first attempt was to bounce the ball while on our knees. Next we tried standing, then walking, finally running. I struggled to get it right.

Then we did an activity called kick baseball, we got into teams.when I got the ball I did a short kick so it was a really tough kick.That was not very good at all for my team,It  was so frustrating after all.At least we won the game.     


Doing Aussie Rules skills with Megan and Alysa was very fun and cool. We really did some great work with them and I look forward to learning more.

Icons,rugy world cup speech

New Zealand is a very unique country compared to the other countries. A million years ago New Zealand was connected to Australia, but now we are geographically isolated. Our Kiwiana shows you how we are in Aotearoa.

The buzzy bee Toy was the most New Zealand famous and treasured childrens’ toy. Its colour is bright with bright red with yellow wings.The buzzy bee was made very late in the 1930’s in a small company in Newton, Auckland. Maurice Scheslinger designed the toy and made the first buzzy bee toy.

Jandals is foot wear made by New Zealand. It’s strap is a Y- strap shape,like a thin thong, that passes between the first big toe and the second toe and around either side of the foot.Flip flops may also be held to the foot with a single strap over the front of the foot rather than a thong.

So thank you all for coming to rugby world cup 2011 and New Zealanders hope you have a fun and good time and Thank you for reading my introduction And go ALL BLACKS !!.

Badminton soccer with lorene and donnah

My hand swung back and forth to take control of the racket. I served the shuttle over my head with an especially powerful hit. My partner hit the shuttle back at me with an awkward ping, so I ran back and forth trying to hit the shuttle over to her side.

Trick shots were a little tough to use. I gasped as I almost did the under leg trick, but it didn’t matter, I could try this challenge again. “It must be the hardest trick of all time”.

While I was pivoting ,the instructor gave me a few tips as she was walking by. So I started to use her cool tips to impress her. I concentrated on the great things she had told me and it wasn’t so hard after all.
